vided for a general reduction Of the
tariff until 1910. And in the dis
cussion of the tariff of 1912, Mr.
Calhoun showed from statistics that
as the tariff had declined, so in the
same proportion (per capital wealth
had increased. Thus we see that a
tariff for revenue does general good
while protection only protects the
few; and the lowering of the pres
ent tariff would injure very small
portion Of our people while greatly
beneftting the masses. What is
true of the past is true to-day. If
our manufacturers could make
money land this they did do) in
their infancy, with only incidental
protection, certainly in their age
they can do so. The tariff of 1916
would give all the protection we
need for legitimate profit and give
our laborers renumerative wages.

ANGELS VISITS. These are not the
DAYS when angels walk the earth, to be
seen of men, and even the most ardent of
Christians ere regretfully compelled to
admit that the age of angels and miracles
is past. But Milan, Tennessee, paper
records the fact that on last Saturday
evening six angels were seen to fly down
into the yard of Mrs. Wood, a widow.
The angels are described as being in the
form and shape of man, ia all respects
resembling the ideal pictures, except that
they had no wings. 1t is added that the
features of these supernatural visitors
were clearly cut and finely formed, while
they wore garm nts of spotless white and
their heads were surrounded with a halo
of heavenly light. There are only two
available explanations. One is that this
is dull season. The sea serpent has
played out, the Virginia volcano is ex-
ploded, and the Texas meteor has become
a chestnut. The other explanation is
that the angels were on their way to Chi
cago to repeat the warning about Sodom
and Gomorrah. Balt0. Herald
The Herald unfortu nately lives
in that wicked city of Baltimore,
or else it would not take up the old
fogy idea that angels do not visit
us in these degenerate days. If he
would come to Annapolis we could
point out to him dozen angels any
day; but they are not men, they
wear beautiful lawns, pongees, etc.,
and even carry parasols. Annapo-
lis is full of them, even nor when
many of them are at the different
summer resorts. Any day in the
week we can show him good round
number, but if he will only come
on Sunday and go to church with
us we will show him that the city's
''full of 'em." Come down neigh
Dor from that wicked city and re-
fresh your sin-beclouded eyes with
a sight of Annapolis angels.

The Fuel Cartridge is the only perfect device
ever invented bv which kerosene oil can be
used as fuel in any ordinary cook stove, range
or heater. The Fuel Cartridge is a metal CYL

with absorbent qualities sufficient to absorb
one pint of oil, which will burn one hOnr
and produce enough heat to cook a meal. or
warm a room. without the aid of coal, wood,
or other fuel. No DANGER.
There is not the slightest danger in using
kerosene with the Fuel Cartridge, as from its
open porous form it cOnmOt explode and is
therefore no more dangerous than Coal or
Wood HOW USED.
The Fuel Cartridge is so simple that but
brief directions for its use are necessary. With

Killed by the Cars.

Henry i. Phelps, one of Van Buren's most
esteemed citizens and a prominent merchant
at Hartford, was accidentally killed on the
morning OF the 29th uit., at the water tank
about four miles east of Nation, Ills, while
on his return home from st. Louis, Mo-.
where he had been To attend the national
encampment of the CT. A.. X. The train
passed the point where he met his death at
about four o'clock in the morning. 1t is
supposed that he had stepped off the train
while il was taking water aud, in attempting
to get on after it had started, missed his
footing on the wet and slippery ground and
was thrown under the wheels and instantly
killed. His body was not badly mutilated,
but his injuries were such that death must
have resulted Immediately. He was not
missed by his comrades and was not discov-
cred until about seven o'clock in the morn
ing, when some of the railroad men found
his body lying beside the track. Some of
his comrades, on their way home the next
day, found his remains at Mattoon, where
they had been cared for by members of the
grand army.
His funeral was held at his late residence
in Hartford, on Sunday afternoon, and was
attended by large concourse of soldiers and
citizens. About 800 members of the G. A. X.
were in attendance. Special trains were run
from Lawton and South Haven.
Mr.. Phelps was forty five years of age and
was born in this county, where his home has
always been. He did faithful service during
the war as a member of Co. "D," Goth Ills.
sharpshooters. He was a member OF the
Hartford Business Mems Association, the
members Of which attended the funeral in a
body, wearing appropriate badges. The
various business houses OF Hartford were all
draped III mourning, and expressions of
sympathy for the bereaved wife-they had
no children-were heard on every hand.
No man would have been more greatly
missed in that community than Mr.. Phelps.
BY his sterling integrity, uprightness and
honesty and his ability as a business man, he
had earned a proud and well deserved repu-
tation. A good citizen, a brave soldier, a
true friend, kind and affectionate husband
has fallen. Peace to his ashes.

Death Of MONROE Denn.

Monroe Dean, who lived near Lake Cora,
died very suddenly on Tuesday of last week,
from the effect of a gun-shot wound received
while soldier in the army. He had never
been very able-bodied since his discharge
but, for some time past, had been suffering
more than usual aud, on the day of his death,
had sent for County Treasurer Butler TO
come and fix up his property matters. This
business completed by deciding his property
to his wife and son, he bade Mr.. Butler good
bye, inviting him to call again, and was dead
in very few minutes thereafter and III less
than an hour after executing the papers.
Mr.. Dean was o highly respected man and
had an enviable record, both as a soldier and
citizen. His funeral was held on Friday
last and his mortal remains deposited in the
Wildey cemetery.

o. N. Hilton is popularly supposed to be

arduous work of making grand success of

the efforts of the other officers, who have
also given much time and attention to the
matter, but Mr.. Hilton was probably the only
man who could have secured the presence of
Gen. Butler-the great drawing card of the
occasion-and he succeeded only by reason
of the previous acquaintance of the families.
We think his efforts are deserving Of great
credit.
